OUTREACH

The Library is dedicated to expanding its reach beyond its physical walls. Library services, programs and collections are brought to community members who would or could not access them otherwise. Our outreach initiatives include story time and read aloud programs at local schools, a book group at a local senior living center, two Little Free Libraries, a small branch offering Library collections and services twice a month at the Pawcatuck Neighborhood Center, and more!

LITTLE FREE LIBRARIES

Two Little Free Libraries have been installed at Stonington Point and Mathews Park.

They are registered on the Little Free Library website.
